IS THIS SCARY??? Cartoon from 1934

This cartoon was in the Chicago Tribune in 1934. Look carefully at the plan of action in the lower left corner.

"Those who do not remember the past are doomed to repeat it."

Does any of this look familiar????? Just wow!

That is a classic. Here's another favorite of mine from the 30s that is apropos today. It's about prosperity...

Very ironic.

Just replace the names on the wagon with the big government politicians of today, and it fits perfectly.

McCormick's Tribune had no love for communists, Trotskyites, trade unionists, New-Dealers, Roosevelt or his government. The left considered Col. McCormick to be a top hat wearing pain in the ass, as this Seuss cartoon from 1942 illustrates.

I have been reading The Forgotten Man by Amity Shlaes. It is truly frightening what FDR did and attempted to do. I don't understand how anyone could consider him a good president.

Yes that is scary. What's scarier is look who is to the left of Wallace (no pun), Harold Ickes Sr.

The RED apple doesn't fall far from the tree. 'Junior' is as much of a commie as the old man.

Never seen this one. Thanks for posting.

And if anyone has not yet read “Liberal Fascism” by Jonah Goldberg, you’re in for many of the same historical and yes, scary, surprises.
